Oops--I guess she did too good a job

From a local newspaper article that mentioned the public school board's decision to cut the position of homeschool liaison officer (along with other budget cuts):

"[The trustee] said the home school liaison position, which kept lines open with home schooling families in hopes students would enrol in the district, didn't prove fruitful.
"'There are more kids being home schooled than ever.'"

"Their liaisons kept deciding to homeschool"--do you mean the liaison officer, or those with whom she liaisoned? Actually the last liaison person was both a teacher and a former homeschooler. About her predecessors, I can't say.

On the Treehouse Fridge

"He realizes that the enemy of poetry is not social evil but slipshod language, the weasel words that betray the free mind: he realizes that to create requires an objective serenity beyond all intruding moral worries about atomic bombs and race prejudice." -–Northrop Frye,The Bush Garden, 1952
